Look up in the sky on the next sunny day. Do you see that big huge yellow ball that is stinging your eyes unless you have a nice pair of shades on. It’s hard to miss. It’s sitting right there amongst those clouds in the big blue sky.

With a little technological lovin’, a dash of genius and some good ol’ fashioned hard work, we might just have the planets energy solution sitting right in front of our faces. Sunpower has been slapping on the sunscreen knowing full well about this practical alternative energy resource since the 1970’s when rock and roll was dirty and sweaty.

Today, Sunpower is one of the global leaders in developing high-efficiency solar solutions for homes, businesses, commercial building and utilities. Sunpower is in a position to be a major force in the alternative energy revolution.

On January 12th, CarbonFree Technology, Integrys Energy Services, Inc., and SunPower Corporation announced the completion of a money-saving rooftop solar power system. The 500-kilowatt Sunpower system is Harvard’s largest and most up-to-date solar power investment.

According to CarbonFree Technology, the solar power system, a SunPower T5 Solar Roof Tile, will generate the equivalent of the amount of power required for 83 average Massachusetts homes each year, potentially offsetting the equivalent of 367 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year.

The project was kick-started by a $1.1 million rebate provided by the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative, to promote the installation of grid-tied photovoltaic systems.

Harvard is onto something very good here. Imagine if more Universities and Colleges around the world adopted similar projects. The long-term savings should outweigh the initial start-up costs.

There has never been a better time for Colleges and Universities to invest into wind and solar technology. They can become energy self-sufficient and potentially generate income through the selling of excess energy to surrounding areas.

Could this be the solution to the economic troubles many Colleges and Universities are currently facing?
